Our first Christmas Craft of 2014! So effective and allowed the older children (9 & 11) their first use of a glue gun too. Our stars are all individual and so beautiful. 🙂 Thank you for the fabulous idea. x

Hi Jackie! I’m going to have my cub scout den make the twiggy stars as a Christmas project for their family Christmas tree this year. I have all the supplies except the twigs. I understand they need to be about the diameter of a pencil but what is a good length?

Thank You and Happy Holidays!

In reply to Kristen Ely. I got a bag of red, green and natural raffia last year, and I think I got it at Michael's Crafts (in Canada). I was there today, and I saw a bag of about 6 colours, browns and purples and natural, and I saw some individual bags of red and green and natural. I was looking (and crossing my fingers) for a slivery blue today, but no luck.

By: Kristen Ely

Kristen Ely — Sat, 17 Nov 2012 19:29:03 +0000

Awesome idea! Where did you find the different colored raffia? I only found the natural color.

In reply to Janelle @ Brimful Curiosities.

I was kind of stuck on what to use when I was coming up with my plan, and then I ran across the raffia in my cupboard and thought “bingo”!
I’d thought of wrapping them with wool, or painting them and gluing jewels on. I actually had some artificial berries to add to them, but didn’t bother because they looked so pretty as is, and I didn’t know how well the jewels would adhere to the sticks.

Janelle @ Brimful Curiosities — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 21:36:12 +0000

I love how the kids used raffia to decorate the stars. We made twig stars, too, but I wasn’t sure how to have the kids help decorate them!
